Essentially, loose mineral cosmetics, also called bare mineral makeup, is comprised of naturally occurring minerals that have been used for cosmetic purposes for thousands of years. ( Cleopatra used crushed mica as her body shimmer )These minerals are mined from around the world, purified, and crushed into fine powders. If this all sounds exotic, cosmetic companies use these same minerals to add color, texture and luster to everything from eyeshadow, and lipstick, to hair color. They're even in your tube of toothpaste! Many of these minerals have a special luster that, when applied to the skin, give the face a lovely glow, lending a healthy, youthful appearance to blemished or aged skin.
Loose mineral cosmetics are catching on in popularity for a very good reason. It is the most natural makeup available on the market. Just think about how your face feels when you apply a liquid foundation. In order to create a liquid foundation, manufacturers add water, oil, waxes, petrochemicals, synthetic humectants, gums, and fillers (like talc) to the mineral colorants. They also add dyes and preservatives. Our loose, dry minerals don't require preservatives, and all of those other irritating ingredients are completely unnecessary. The natural pigments blend easily on the skin and provide superior coverage due to the lack of cheap fillers.
Large cosmetics companies are corporations that are designed to generate profit. Your skin's health is not their
number one concern. Natural minerals cost much more than cheap synthetic fillers and dyes. The bottom line of these corporations is profit. Ours is quality, purity, and performance. Our vision is to provide natural cosmetic products that will enable women to achieve the look that they want without
harmful chemicals.
All of our cosmetics are made of the highest quality, pharmaceutical grade, pure mineral and organic ingredients. Our cosmetics do not contain irritating ingredients like bismuth oxychloride, cheap fillers, mineral oil, petrochemicals, synthetic humectants, FD&C or Lake dyes or paraben preservatives that generally cause sensitive people to react to standard cosmetics. The likelihood of a reaction to mineral cosmetics is extremely rare.
We offer a 30 day money back guarantee, if you are not satisfied for any reason.
Due to
the percentage of titanium dioxide in our Mineral Foundation, it
serves as a natural sunscreen which could be rated around SPF 15. We
recommend that you always use an additional sunscreen before
applying your make-up, on your neck and upper chest to
ensure you are well protected. Dermatologists strongly recommend you
wear a high SPF during the day to reduce your risk of deadly
melanoma cancers and premature aging.
Our customers who have skin issues and have had bad experiences with cosmetics in the past LOVE our mineral makeup. They actually notice that their problem skin improves with the use of our foundations because the minerals soothe inflamed skin and have superior oil control. The likelihood of a reaction is extremely rare since our products do not contain the most irritating ingredients like bismuth oxychloride, talc, dye, and perfume found in almost all standard cosmetics. We urge all of our customers to clean their cosmetic brushes on a very regular basis to ensure that they are not harboring bacteria which could contribute to a breakout.
